Holocaust drama at Rowan

What Is It: A Holocaust drama based on the story of Charlotte Delbo, "Who Will Carry The Word?" offers a unique theatrical view into one episode from this horrific period in history. It will be performed starting tonight through March 3 in the Westby Hall Black Box Theatre on the Glassboro campus of Rowan University.

What To Expect: The play depicts the lives of 20 women sharing a barracks in Auschwitz. The goal: keep the strongest alive so there will be someone to share their experiences with the world. Student actresses from across the state enact the story of women in Auschwitz. A celebration of the human spirit, "Who Will Carry The Word?" is a portrait of resilience by ordinary people placed in extraordinary - and in this case, horrifying - circumstances. "Who Will Carry The Word?," written in 1966, attempts to describe life inside the concentration camps with an unflinching eye.

Event Info: Performances are 7 and 9 p.m. today, Saturday, Feb. 28, March 1 and 2; 3 and 5 p.m. Sunday; and 3 p.m. March 3 at Rowan University, Route 322, Glassboro, Gloucester County. Tickets are $15 general admission and $10 for seniors, non-Rowan students, alumni and staff. Seating is limited for each performance. Advanced purchase is recommended.
